Is there any way to do this other than being at the airport?

yea, walking out of the country. on your way IN to mexico, pick up two cartons, immediately walk back and stash into your car..

the limit is higher than that isn't it? I brought three back from C.R

you got lucky, the duty limit is actually a carton ATM it used to be two. 200 cigarettes or 2kg of tobacco which ever comes first..

Go into a poor neighborhood in a big city. Whenever im in the TL I always see guys selling cigs for $2 a pack out of garbage bags.

yum. sounds legit.

i have a carton coming from the Philippines right now, literally on the plane as we speak US$4/carton

Tell me if you ever receive your carton, and possibly some other useful informations

haha

he said "Duty Free Smokes"

Yeah.....2kg tobacco. I think you mean 2hg, or 200 grams, you americans need to learn the metric systems. Its actually easier then the imperial.

Try ordering online. I'm not sure though, I think there might be a 50/50% chance you'll have to pay duty there.

Almost every American drug user knows metric :)
